"SCHMOLLER'S YEARBOOK." 1915. ISSUE I

In the article: "National Nutrition in Wartime and Peacetime"
Karl Ballod ("Schmoller's Yearbook," 1915, Issue 1) provides an attempt at a compilation (incomplete) of data on national nutrition:

Food sources—vegetable and animal
Total quantity per person per day

| | | Including | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Order: | | Vege- | Ani- |
| | | table | mal |
| 1. United States of America | 2.925 | 2.235 | 279 |
| 2. England | 2.900 | 2.367 | 240 |
| 3. France | 2.749 | 2.205 | 544 |
| 4. Germany | 2.708 | 1.925 | 975 |
| 5. Italy | 2.607 | 2.030 | 456 |
| 6. Austria | 2.486 | 1.870 | 1.054 |
| 7. Russia | 2.414*† | 1.764 | 50 |
| 8. Japan | 1.814 | | |

*Order of countries. For Germany, Ballod's figures are not fully distributed into animal and vegetable categories. The distribution is mine, based on his particular data.

†Here Ballod made an error; it should be: 1.871. — Ed.
††The same: it should be: 2.514. — Ed.

K. MARX. ARTICLES OF 1898 ON THE INTERNATIONAL
AND A NOTE ON THE SELF-DETERMINATION OF NATIONS

In Neue Zeit XX, 1, p. 585 (1901–2)

M. Bach translated an English article by K. Marx from 1878: "Mr. George Howells' History of the International Workers' Association."

Marx treats this Howell (one of the typical liberal workers' politicians) with contempt, corrects a series of his false assertions about the International, declares that he, Marx, is the author of "The Civil War in France" and that he published it long ago in the "Daily News," speaks of the transition of the "International" into a new, "higher" form, and makes other particular remarks. Among other things, Marx writes:

"By the way, one point of the Program which I had the honor to draft for the General Council (for the 1865 conference) reads as follows: 'The necessity of the destruction of Muscovite influence in Europe on the basis of the application of the principle of the self-determination right of nations and the restoration of Poland on a democratic and socialist basis'" (p. 586). ((In "The Secular Chronicle," vol. X, no. 5, August 4)).

// 1878. A little journal of "freethinker-republican direction." Publisher Harriet Law was a member of the International. //
